С текстове и кратки мои коментари :).

How Many Tears (В YouTube – Helloween с Киске, за съжаление без Кай Хансен .Въпреки, че песничката е над 20 години, текста е актуален и днес)

A lot of things occur each day
We’ve got to live with on our way
There’s so much misery on the screen
With commercials in between

And the Russians won’t be so late
Uncle Sam don’t wanna wait
No matter if you’re black or white
You never ever had a right

And look up to the eternal skies
See warfare even there
What once has been a paradise
Now destruction and despair

In other worlds the children die
Lacking food ill from a fly
Oppressed by troops to tame their land
It’s all the same again

If any man is free on earth
Then tormentors steal his birth
They slam gun butts in his face
And leave his woman choked in mace

So stand up for our human rights
Push back this pest of hate
Raise you voice pass on the light
Unite! it’s not too late

[Chorus]
How many tears flow away
To become a sea of fears
How many hearts are torn apart
Till another torment starts

But before the world
Turns into a sun
All cruelty and violence
On earth will be dead and gone

[Solo: both/both/M/both]

So stand up for our human rights
Push back this pest of hate
Raise you voice pass on the light
Unite! it’s not too late

[Chorus]

The Power Of Love (Оригинала на Jennifer Rush, на живо – в пъти по-добра от кавъра на Селин Дион)

The whispers in the morning
Of lovers sleeping tight
Are rolling by like thunder now
As I look in your eyes

I hold on to your body
And feel each move you make
Your voice is warm and tender
A love that I could not forsake

‘Cause I am your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I’ll do all that I can

Lost is how I’m feeling
Lying in your arms
When the world outside’s too much to take
That all ends when I’m with you

Even though there may be times
It seems I’m far away
But never wonder where I am
‘Cause I am always by your side

‘Cause I am your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I’ll do all that I can

We’re heading for something
Somewhere I’ve never been
Sometimes I am frightened
But I’m ready to learn
‘Bout of the power of love

The sound of your heart beating
Made it clear suddenly
The feeling that I can’t go on
Is light years away

‘Cause I am your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I’m gonna do all that I can

We’re heading for something
Somewhere I’ve never been
Sometimes I am frightened
But I’m ready to learn
‘Bout of the power of love

We’re heading for something
Somewhere I’ve never been
Sometimes I am frightened
But I’m ready to learn
‘Bout of the power of love
The power of love
The power of love
Sometimes I am frightened
But I’m ready to learn
‘Bout of the power of love

The Bard’s Song – In The Forest (На живо, естествено публиката е главен герой ;). Бях им на концерта по-миналата година в София, и беше … неописуемо! А какво ли е усещането, когато няколко, десетки хиляди човека пеят твоята песен :))

Now you all know
The bards and their songs
When hours have gone by
I’ll close my eyes
In a world far away
We may meet again
But now hear my song
About the dawn of the night
Let’s sing the bards’ song

Tomorrow will take us away
Far from home
No one will ever know our names
But the bards’ songs will remain
Tomorrow will take it away
The fear of today
It will be gone
Due to our magic songs

There’s only one song
Left in my mind
Tales of a brave man
Who lived far from here
Now the bard songs are over
And it’s time to leave
No one should ask you for the name
Of the one
Who tells the story

Tomorrow will take us away
Far from home
No one will ever know our names
But the bards’ songs will remain
Tomorrow all will be known
And you’re not alone
So don’t be afraid
In the dark and cold
‘Cause the bards’ songs will remain
They all will remain

In my thoughts and in my dreams
They’re always in my mind
These songs of hobbits, dwarfs and men
And elves
Come close your eyes
You can see them too

Rebellion In Dreamland (Любимците ми Gamma Ray на живо, взето от Live In Montreal DVD)

Voices are calling from somewhere below
Melting on the eastern shore
Rain is falling down on me,
Been waiting for eternity…
I’ll be there!
Freedom for us all!

And I wonder why, why my heart still yearns
And I wonder why, why the earth still turns
And I wonder why, why the sky turns black
Still I wonder why, but there is no turning back

For all eternity, for all the world to see
We’re riding high across the wind
And when the storm begins, to wash away all sins
We’ll find a place where we’ll begin

There’s something wrong with the world today,
Only the people that are fighting for…
…A better place in the world today,
They don’t believe that they gone too far,
…They’re falling down.

By moonlight there’s way… for rebellion
Here, the world has gone astray… revolution
Now, the time has come to pray… halleluja
Deep, inside our minds we wait… for rebellion
Here in dreamland we will not obey the masters

And the earth still turns
But I’m on my way – He is on the way
And my heart still yearns
Now I’m on my way – he is on the way
And I cry for more
Yes I’m on my way – now he’s on the way
Gonna find the secret wall

I have seen the secret dreams
Of those who know eternity
And makes me feel like a shadow sneaking in
In my sleep I’m searching for a way to find
The open door leading me to where it all begins

There’s something wrong with the world today…

By moonlight there’s a way…

Now I’m riding through the air
Going to where no one dares
On the way I cross the line forevermore.
For once in life, I do not care
Nothing matters, now I dare
On the ride I’ll cross the line
Forever to be free

Have no fear, Rebellion is here!

The Seven Angels (В YouTube намерих на живо само припева на песента от някакъв скорошен концерт, почва от 3:04 след Sign of the Cross. Самото изпълнение е свежо с това, че по някое време бек вокалите вече не са back, ами излизат и пеят редом с фронтмените! Иначе в оригинала на песента на метъл операта Avantasia седемте страхотни вокала са уникални!)

[Believers:]

Fire falling from the sky
Rage of god is coming down
Armaggeddon’s drawing nigh
Sinner cry ! Heathen die !
Hear the toll of pain, gloria, gloria
In the fiery rain
Fire falling from the sky
Rage of god is coming down
Armaggeddon’s drawing nigh
Sinner cry ! Heathen die !
Hear the toll of pain, gloria, gloria

Now the time has come, the end’s begun
And the only one will come

[Gabriel Tobias Sammet:]

It has been foretold
By the visions of the old
And the madness in their eyes
Said his angel will arise
That’s what they know : „Holy Lord it’s over, oh god
We have done no wrong
So we go where we belong
To the neverending dream
But for those who lived in sin“
They claim to know : „Holy Lord it’s over, oh god“

[Pope Oliver Hartmann:]

Hey Angel, can you tell me
Will you lead us to the place
Full of heat, in the fire
For we only brought disgrace

[Lugaid Michael Kiske:]

He is not the one. If they only knew

[Bishop Rob Rock:]

Hey Angel, will you take us
To the judgement of his rage
Hey will we die
For we couldn’t close the gate

[Lugaid:]

To the knowledge as they have been told

[Gabriel:]

I don’t know how could I prove
Nothing but the cloven hoof
Reigning over them as well
While they keep on fighting hell
Babylon the scarlet whore has come

We are the seven, judgement of heaven
Why don’t we know : We are the angels
It’s revelation, soul castignation
Fire will burn us away
We are the seven, judgement of heaven
Why don’t we know : We are the angels
It’s revelation, soul castignation
Fire will burn us away

[Pope:]

Redeemer, devastion
Hope it only has been ment
For the sin of the dreamer
who broke the low you’d sent

[Lugaid:]

He is not the one. If they only knew

[Jakob David DeFeis:]

Hey, don’t know but i wondered:
When we lost the seal again
Maybe stoned by the incense
Do we rise or just descent

[Lugaid:]

He is not the one. If they only knew

[Gabriel:]

I don’t know how could I prove
Nothing but the cloven hoof
Reigning over them as well
While they keep on fighting hell
Babylon the scarlet whore has come

We are the seven, judgement of heaven
Why don’t we know : We are the angels
It’s revelation, soul castignation
Fire will burn us away
We are the seven, judgement of heaven
Why don’t we know : We are the angels
It’s revelation, soul castignation
Fire will burn us away

[Solo: Henjo Richter]

[Voice of the tower Timo Tolkki:]

Woe to you longing for the wisdom
Woe to you longing for the light
All my sons bring me back what is mine
Or you’ll end burning in this night
Woe to you longing for the wisdom
Woe to you longing for the light
All my sons bring me back what is mine
Or you’ll end burning in this night

[Solo: Timo Tolkki]

[Gabriel:]

Once I have been lost in what they told me to believe
Until I felt in burning deep inside to set my spirit free
And I escaped to another world to help the little men
who make me plunge into philosophy – to feel my
mind again… No one left to hold me tight – on the
`real`other side – but her in chains

I had been alone till the madman come along
With the knowledge and silver long beard
He was the first man ever teaching how I could be free
Helping me to find – oh – the mind and the soul
They’ve been trying to hide away…
And he promised we’d help Anna if I’d help him to
go all the way

[Lugaid:]

Go all the way into the world of minds
Open the gate and do not close behind
Prevent them from hiding the light away
Prevent them from tellin’ us tales
Or the end of all they scare us with will be a
million empty brains…

[Gabriel:]

I could bring you what you told me
The seal they need to close the gate forever
But still I haven’t found a meaning
Anna will we ever be together

[Regrin Kai Hansen:]

You’ve been fighting for your soul
And sometimes it takes a toll
Hope one day you’ll understand
What it means to hold in hands
What they call a fantasy
It is nothing but a key
To the world that now you’re in
That they call a wicked dream

[Elderane Andre Matos:]

When you’re walking on your own
When you’re broken and alone
You may feel us from inside –
on the other side of life.
Ohohohoh…

[Gabriel:]

I’ve been fighting for my soul
And sometimes it takes a toll
Hope one day we’ll understand
What it means to hold in hands
What we call a fantasy
But it’s nothing but a key
To the world that now I’m in
That we call a wicked dream

Oh, walking on my own
When I’m broken and alone
I may feel you from inside
From the other side of life
